I was quite excited about mine (Cat back system) but now i've had it on for awhile, its doing my head in haha. Gets soooo bluddy loud especially when its warmed up. pops and farts all the time lol. but thats quite funny haha. Its really annoying tho now as its banging about, think the exhaust rubbers are shot. need uprated ones really.

 :wink:

I'm on a Twin DTM. Does look the nuts but is too big if you ask me. your better going for twin exit 2inch pipes. OR better still.... Single oval DTM pipe... now i think they look proper nice on the mk3...

I have a 7" so i'll be no use to you vicky...  :laugh:  :laugh:

anyway back to the topic lol.... sounds a good choice... 2-3inch is fine. just make sure when they fit it, they fit it so the tailpipes are straight. as there a nightmare to line up on the golf.

I do and i dont like my loud exhaust... It does bring some attention lol...
